Head's message

St Stithians Girls’ College is a school in South Africa that is grounded in the Methodist ethos and our leadership philosophy of Belong Learn Lead Serve. At Girls' College we value a diverse community fostering belonging and inclusion, knowing that our humanity is intrinsically linked to one another.

I strongly believe that an ethical and holistic education contributes significantly to shaping a humane society. Education plays a critical role in shaping young women, who approach the world with sensitivity, open-mindedness and purpose. Education is, therefore, not only defined by the "in classroom" learning but moments of learning participating in extracurricular activities and informal moments of interaction with teachers and peers. I believe that at the heart of our students' educational journeys, we aim to instill the desire to engage with critical thinking and meaningful self-reflection, so she can know herself, be herself and make her contribution.

It is our wish that when a St Stithians Girls' College student leaves Girls' College that she will brave the world with curiosity, courage and empathy to leave a meaningful legacy.

| Girls’ College, Campus

Across Visual Arts, Music, Drama and Dance, our students shine in wonderfully different ways. Some command a stage. Some fill a room with music. Some tell stories through movement or make an audience laugh. Others work with colour, line, texture and form, creating art that asks us to stop, look and see the world differently.
